Senior Data Scientist Consultant, Managed Agent Platform (P2392)

About the role

The Agent Platform Team, within AI Enablement at 84.51°, owns and manages the core platforms that power data science and AI across the organization. This role sits on the MAP (Managed Agent Platform) squad and is focused on helping stand up a new, centralized platform that simplifies and accelerates the design, development, deployment, and monitoring of AI agents across the organization. The MAP is being built in response to growing demand for a flexible, no-code/low-code solution that enables both technical and non-technical users to build and deploy agents without deep engineering overhead. The platform is early-stage - the team is actively evaluating different platforms and tooling, defining workflows, and establishing standards. You will be joining at the ground floor and helping shape what this platform becomes. You will be the bridge between the engineers building/ maintaining the MAP and the data scientists and agent builders who will use it. You are not building agents for end-clients. Instead, you ensure the platform works for the people on it - that capabilities are tested, documented, and adopted smoothly, and that practitioner needs make it back to the engineering team in a way that shapes the roadmap. You'll bring hands-on familiarity with the open-source agent ecosystem - including frameworks like LangChain , LangGraph , Google ADK, and OpenAI Agents SDK - and apply that knowledge to evaluate platform capabilities, inform design decisions, and help practitioners understand what's possible. As the platform matures, you'll help onboard users, develop best practices, and drive adoption across the organization. This is a small, engineer-heavy squad that is standing something up from scratch. Everyone pitches in on a bit of everything. Priorities will shift frequently as the platform takes shape. Success in this role is less about fixed technical expertise and more about comfort with ambiguity, good judgment about where to spend your time, and the ability to influence without direct authority.

Responsibilities

• Voice of the practitioner: Serve as the primary liaison between data scientists and agent builders and the MAP engineering team. Gather requirements, surface pain points, and translate practitioner needs into actionable feedback that shapes platform decisions, standards, and the roadmap.
• Onboarding & enablement: As the platform matures, write guides, maintain documentation, lead training sessions, and run office hours to help data scientists and agent builders adopt the MAP. Serve as a first line of support when teams hit roadblocks.
• Adoption & communication: Evangelize the MAP to increase awareness and drive adoption across the organization. Produce clear communications and materials for both technical and non-technical audiences.
• Governance & compliance support: Help validate that platform capabilities meet enterprise requirements around security, compliance, observability, scalability, and data governance.
• Qualifications & Experience
• Bachelor's degree in mathematics, statistics, computer science, economics, or a related discipline.
• 2-4 years of experience in data science, AI/ML development, or applied analytics.
• 2-4 years of experience in tech consulting, retail analytics, or related professional services.
• Hands-on experience with Python
